This Project LifeTM spread is created using some of the "Hello December" Stampin' Up! Project Life kit and the November monthly My Paper Pumpkin kits. It is created to fit in the small 6x8" albums that are available in the holiday mini album. You only have one more week to order from that catalog and many of those items are on sale so make sure you get yours today!

Holy Cow.
I've got to get cracking and get wrapping.
But I still have to be a parent. And not just any parent. A good parent. One that plays with their kids... play doh. All day. Every day.
And that's when it hit me.
I grabbed the Stampin' Up! clay, as well as the play doh mold.
Yup. I did. Not kidding.
(good parent?)

I grabbed my stamp set and did a test.
j.a.c.k.

Then turned it over and stamped the date on the back. Finally using a straw made a hole.

Wow. That was easy. Here's all you need!

You've got a tag and a Christmas ornament!

Hop along to see what's next!

Here's Cindy!

Cheers!

Cathy

PS. There's still time to join up for my Project Life by Mail PDF kit for January!!!

CREATIVE BLOG HOP: What's that? I was approached by a fabulous demonstrator named Carolyn Crann of Stamping.Cards based out of Ontario to join in on a weekly blog hop. So sweet of her to think of me! She posted some projects onDecember 1st so make sure you check her out!

As part of this blog hop, you have to answer your questions about yourself and to demonstrate a project. The hop continues every Sunday!

Blog Hop Questions:

1) What are you working on? I am working on a December Daily, a post for Scrapbook Cards & Today, two Disney mini albums and projects for Canadian Scrapbooker. December is always busy!

2) How does your work differ from others in your genre? Well, I am lazy. So, scraps from my previous project always make their way on my next project. Usually because I bunch them together and staple them on. But I think I may differ because I am a Stampin' Up! demonstrator but with a love for scrapbooking. This is a rarity in the card maker world.

3) Why do you create what you do? I create what needs to be done - like the next birthday or Christmas present.. or decor project. But I really try to take time for myself. I like to tell the story, similar to Ali Edwards. I love to journal... there's too many stories that my kids give me... (but I won't be documenting the poop mess my son made the night before I had to get rid of my carpet. No. I won't do that. And Yes. I said poop. I am a Mom of two. I have a right.)

4) How does your creative process work? Wow. quickly. Yes. I have limited time. I don't like to sit in my room and think. I just do. I like to wear my hair on the top of my head (like broccoli stuck out on my head... Stephanie's Ponytail.. anyone? anyone?) while I work. I like to stand sometimes. And I sure as heck like to dance like it's 1999.

Now... I am so happy to be asking two of my fabulous friends to join this hop. They will be posting on December 14th! So make sure you check them out... and if I do say so myself... I have some seriously awesome and talented friends... both of these ladies are true artist. True originals. And both have the kindest hearts you'll ever find. I love them. :)

I created this card for a Ronald MacDonald House challenge for a Stamping' Up! regional event that was set for a couple weeks ago. I thought I'd use it for the Catherine and Cathy Create December monthly challenge. You have until the end of the month to upload your project for your chance to win a prize!

This is kraft paper with embossed snowflakes, as well as machine stitching. It has an open circle in the middle using the SU circle framlits and some banners at the top!

On the inside, I coloured the Santa suit using the cherry cobbler blendabilities. I also stamped on the iridescent glimmer paper and then paper pierced it together. Ohhhh, its so pretty!! Try it!

On the inside, I coloured the Santa suit using the cherry cobbler blend abilities. Did I mention that there's a door crasher deal on the full set of blend abilities markers??? WOW!! It's amazing! Quantities are limited though so get yours today!
